Animalic Fragrance
I like Animalic fragrances. I was a bit concerned with the notes of this fragrance, yet when applied to my skin, it was not overly "funky" at all. The resins stand out, as well as Oud. You will smell the ambergris, castoreum and civet, but that is why you purchased an Animalic, yes?! If you have ever experienced Furyo and enjoyed that fragrance, you will appreciate Afrika Olifant. Nishane has created this for those who enjoy Animalic scents. For me, a job well done.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
